I don't want to know if you should be able to make those changes, I want to know if you can make those changes. I'd like to hear from people who have actually tried to change the .xml file or the settings in the nation editor if they have been successful or not, and, if they have, how did they do it.

Joe, when you say "all with no success", did you mean that the changes crashed the game, or the changes didn't stick, or something else?
I have seen reference, I believe, in another thread to changes in the .xml not sticking, that it reverts back to the original.
Also, I have seen recommendations to use Notepad++ for the editing (freeware), have you tried this?
